Zeolite Australia's active filter media is made from the unique natural mineral called Zeolite. This environmentally friendly mineral has a 3-dimensional structure of microscopic apertures and channel ways like a hard, but porous sponge. Zeolite’s porous structure provides a huge surface area which traps the smallest particles, down to 3 microns, and removes them from your pool.

The unpleasant effects of stinging eyes, irritating or dry skin, acrid chemical smells are mostly eliminated. These are generally caused by mono-and di-chloramines formed by the reaction of ammonia / ammonium and the chlorine used for disinfection and prevents the formation of these irritating and dangerous compounds.

The chemical action of Zeolite and its capacity results in a more efficient use of chlorine and reduction in other chemicals used for pH control. As a result the total dissolved solids (TDS) discharge to the environment is lower.

Features:

1. The performance of D.E. with the ease of sand.
2. Better filtration (2 microns) means a saving in chemicals usage and better looking water.
3. Removal of ammonia – better swimming comfort – no smell – no more irritation to skin and eyes.
4. Because of its greater surface are you will not have to backwash as often – on average twice as long between backwashing therefore saving water – up to 50%
5. Leading Australian swimming pool filter manufactures recognize these benefits and have chosen to promote this ultimate filter media.
6. No only is Zeolite chosen as the best form of filter media in domestic pools it is being used in many aquatic centres – swim schools and council pools through Australia and overseas.
7. Zeolite comes from a naturally formed volcanic rock which is mined at Werris Creek in N.S.W. Australia.
